This is made up of olibanum plant extract which has very calming and soothing qualities according to ancient Indian medicine. Salalah is home to frankincense, or olibanum, (the aromatic resin obtained from scraggly but hardy trees of the genus Boswellia,) the signature scent of Oman. Knowing about the inhibiting effects of boswellic acids on the key-enzyme 5-lipoxygenase, an alcoholic extract from olibanum was used for edema treatment. |
